Chapter 8
" Indeed, I have come to challenge you. " said Zeroth.
" I think you are underestimating me, for your information, I have remained the Summon G.o.d for about eight years now, and I secured the 3rd rank in the previous Royal tournament. ", then Robert paused for a while and then said, " Now, do you want to battle with me.?"
" Yes, I want to."
Then Robert made a fierce look and shouted, " Well then, let us have a battle. I will use my entire strength to show you where you belong. I will also call all the members of our base to witness this fight, so that I can shatter your confidence and make you realize, how weak you really are. "
" Ok then, I am ready for the battle. "
After some time all the Summon base members had gathered in the room of the Summon G.o.d and waited for their fight to begin.
" Now that everyone is here, let us start the battle. Summon Phoenix.", said Robert.
Zeroth was shocked to see that Robert could Summon a Phoenix as it was very rare and a very powerful S cla.s.s beast. Then Zeroth summoned Astridous.
Then Robert signaled Phoenix to attack Astridous. Then Phoenix flapped its wings rapidly, it released such a tremendous amount of energy that Astridous was pushed back.
Then Zeroth said, " Astridous, dark mode."
Astridous then fired comet blast, Phoenix dodged the bullet.
Then Robert said, " Now the time for playing around is over, I am going to end this battle now. Phoenix, dark mode and roast that weak beast with your flames "
Now Phoenix
"I will end the battle with this", said Robert.
Then Phoenix casted the fireball on Astridous. Then Zeroth smiled and said, " This is what I was waiting for. ", then he paused and said, " Astridous, demon form, absorb."
Astridous turned into his demon form and then when the fireball hit him, he absorbed all its energy and then raised his gun and fired it. The gun released a tremendous amount of energy and had a direct hit on Phoenix. Then Phoenix vanished.
" Impossible, how can i be lose to someone like You. ", said Robert. He felt totally embarra.s.sed to have lost a battle in front of the entire base.
Robert then handed Zeroth his t.i.tle holder and said, " Take this, it now belongs to you. The holder you achieved after defeating Henry, please return it back to him. I am leaving this base to become more strong and when I return to the base, I will defeating you and take my place as the Summon G.o.d again. "
Robert then left the room. Then Zeroth handed him his t.i.tle holder back.
Then Zeroth saw the t.i.tle holder, which Robert had given him. It was a golden coloured ball with a silver dot on it. Then Zeroth pressed the silver dot, but this time something unusual happened.
A large digital screen opened before him. It scanned Zeroth for a while and then the another screen opened and asked Zeroth for his details. Zeroth filled up the details after which the screen refreshed and it stated, 'The New Summon G.o.d Zeroth's details have been added to the hall of fame', after which the screen was again refreshed and then it stated,, The Summon G.o.d,, and below it, there was Zeroth's details along with his photograph.
Then Zeroth asked Henry, " what is the hall of fame. "
" The hall of Fame is located in the middle of Salvac, it is completely digitalized. It consists of details of all the current or previous elements G.o.ds. Whenever someone becomes a new G.o.d of any elemental base, the t.i.tle holder automatically transfers his data to the hall of fame and stores it. Also, along with the details of elemental G.o.ds it also has the details of the present King as well as of the previous kings.", said Henry.
" Thank you, Henry. Now I will also go and take some rest. ", after which Zeroth left the room.
When Zeroth came out of the Summon base, he looked at his watch, it was already 6PM, then he then rushed to place he had promised Eric to meet again at 5PM.
When Zeroth reached that spot, he was releaved to see that Eric was still there and then he approached him and said, " I am sorry for being late. "
Then Eric said, " Its alright, by the way how did your trial go."
" It was awesome, I became the Summon G.o.d, and what about you."
" I was able to defeat the guards but couldn't win against the elite, he was way too strong. "
" Its fine. You can still try for the first round of the tournament. "
" I can but I don't intend to partic.i.p.ate in the Royal tournament now. I will just witness the tournament and support you from the audience."
" If that is what you wish, then it's fine with me. Until the tournament begins let us find a place to stay and relax. "
